Connecting with a local agent who knows the Atlanta market well can help you navigate these choices and find the best fit for your investment goals.

You'll spend a lot of time (sounds like you may have already) spinning your wheels in trying to find the right lender, whereas a solid broker can pair you up with the right fit right away and get your project moving. 

A bigger concern is someone who clearly fits the rules as they are written and intentionally acts in good faith, only to have the IRS comb through their time logs and arbitrarily finds some of those time entries invalid and/or inflated.

But, I would still look into STR management or seeing if MTR can fit your desired lifestyle.

There is never a one size fits all asset protection planning strategy.

I invest in a couple states and I also am a agent in new jersey. my rule of thumb for a client is when they say I'm hoping for in a sentence describing a property I dive a little deeper into there goals because it sounds like they are trying to fit a square block into a round whole.

It really comes down to what fits your needs and experience level.

I think this would make sense in the long run for the rental property as it will extend the life of everything it touches like the Sink, faucets, showers, water heater, dishwasher, and Clothes washer while also providing clean drinking water in addition to the reverse osmosis drinking water system I already have installed.The main problem with this hardness level is that we get a major deposit buildup on all of these items, which will eventually clog up the faucets for tenants and lead to rusty shower enclosures that take forever to clean.In addition to this, it looks like we could likely have the salt added every couple of months by the property managers in addition to that it would allow for a quick inspection from them, and then also we would instead bill the cost of the service onto the ledger for the tenants.For reference, it does not look like the landlords in the area have water softeners.Thank you everyone for your input ahead of time.
